Forq

World-class improvisers who spread an infectious groove in their well-known jazz-fusion style - the band Forq! An American group of instrumentalists, with such a famous musical pedigree that they guarantee an audience.

The group was originally a spin-off of the successful jam band Snarky Puppy and band members have played for David Bowie, Marcus Miller, Lauryn Hill, Empire of the Sun and others.

All About Jazz on the band's album "Four": "Despite a wide range of elements that appear in the music - from Afrobeat, synth-pop, rock, funk and jazz - there is a solid, unified character to the material."

Forq are known for delivering engaging and moody performances with constant surprises for the audience. Their brand is hard-hitting fusion, which includes a dynamic soundscape and endless sonic exploration.

"In fact, once acclimated, the light-hearted feel and quirky soundscapes actually help highlight just how much underlying musical umami there is on Four.(…) Forq produces its deepest, most satisfying album to date with Four." - All About Jazz
